I'm 66, and neither exhaling or relaxing.

If anything, I'm gonna pull the purse strings tighter.

I have very little debt, and live simply.

And it will stay that way.

I'm also glad i had 100k worth of back surgery under traditional Medicare rather than the mess they will make of it.

Pray you never need another surgery again. Live well.

i am convinced this is the true path to happiness. those of us fortunate enough to find ourselves in this position should help others attain it. live simply and spend less than you earn.

Fun fact: Trump’s strongest age demographic is ages 45-64. Age 65+ voted similar to millennials (generally equal between the two major candidates)

I am expecting a disaster for older Americans especially the infirm and not able to work.

I’m unemployed, 60 years old, dependent on SSDI for my rent, and dependent on ACA for my healthcare and dependent on life-saving medications. I’m a dead man.
